The mileage: 80 miles round trip by Turbo Jet Ferry; now 18170 miles total.
A former Portuguese colony, you see the influence in many things, from street signs to food.
Made a beeline for the 3 Lamps district and the food markets. Spent a few hours there sampling hot stuffed peppers and baked goods stuffed with ham, cheese, bacon, and olives.
We were clearly the only non-Asians at a packed lunch spot and we ate sautéed greens and shredded chicken and noodles in a spicy vinegary broth.
Headed to the cathedral and casino area where things become much more touristy. Note to fellow travelers: stick to the alleyway markets, it's much more fun.
All in all a fun day with great weather
